      Didn't go so well. :sad: Lightsare a problem. David said that the units could be rewired but it's a difficult job and he couldn'tgurantee that they would work. Went to look at lights in a specialist shop and didn't like any of them. The man in the shop said he could rewire lights and the bulb holders would be changed at the same time. We would have to take them in for him to see whether they could be done (£30 charge for checking) and then, if they are fixable, £15 per arm that holds the lights. It's not too bad a price if it can be done so I'll need to take them to him to look at.

      Tom brought the computer back and started to set it up but it kept freezing when he tried to download our emails from the server. So he's taken it away again and will work on it at home.

            Aloha everyone,

            Good to see you @moyra :grphg:

            It's OK as it's too dark indoors to be able to see the computer! :lunapic 130165696578242 5:

            We're taking some friends out to lunch today for their 60th anniversary.

            Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

            Aloha!

              Hi @shiney sorry your lecky did'nt go as expected and i hope they're ok when you have them tested :fingers crossed:....sometimes when you need a job doing something else occurs :wallbanging:

              Computers at times mate can be a nightmare been there with one tower i had, it totally did my head in, so i had my hubby smash the tower because of personal details as they was already copied and went and brought this laptop...best thing i purchased :fingers crossed:

                    Aloha everyone,

                    The promised rain didn't appear and it has been quite sunny. Taken our ceiling lights to the lighting shop to be rewired. So I guess we'll be without them for a week.

                    Off out in the garden now.

                    Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

                    Aloha!

                            Aloha everyone,

                            It's a little bit damp outside but not raining. :blue thumb: I hope to do a bit more gardening this morning whilst Mrs Shiney is out at a flower arranging demo. Then we're off out, I've been told by her :heehee:, to view a house for sale with a friend of hers. The friend has never owned a house before and wants my 'expert' :scratch: :hate-shocked: opinion. :runforhills: The only help I can give is some moral support and sound as though I know what I'm talking about when I try to get the price down for her :snorky:.

                            Then we're straight off to a Horticultural Society Show in a posh village :noidea:. Mrs Shiney is a member and wants a chauffeur :loll:

                            Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

                            Aloha!

                              Morning
                              Damp here, but I'm off to Rosemoor to the SW Alpine Garden Society Spring show, will probably be tempted to buy something. If the weather is not too wet then a general perambulation will take place.
